DUI Defense

Whether it is your first offense or a repeat incident, receiving a Driving under the Influence (DUI) or Driving While Impaired (DWI) sentence in Oklahoma can have serious, lifelong consequences. From hefty fines to jail time and possible license revocation, knowing your rights can be the key difference between minimizing the potential criminal charges against you and having to go to jail.

In the eyes of the legal system, there is such thing as a “minor DUI”—it is a criminal offense, and you will be tried as such. Unfortunately, due to factors like human error, unfair roadside testing and technological malfunction (such as a breathalyzer giving a false positive), an instance may arise in which you are falsely accused of driving under the influence.

The possible consequences you may experience if you’re convicted can include:

A jail or prison sentence

Expensive fines

Loss of your driver’s license

Loss of use of your vehicle

Loss of your job, especially if you drive for work in any capacity

Increases in your car insurance premiums

A permanent criminal record that can’t be expunged

Sometimes, having to defend yourself in a DUI case can seem like an intimidating and almost hopeless prospect. The prosecutor will waste no time pointing out how you could have posed a danger to yourself and to other drivers in the area, and the jury may feel inclined to agree with them. But when these charges are made without a solid and conclusive basis, or are made unfairly against you, you have the legal right to an attorney who can help others see that you are the victim of an unfair trial.
